See Page 25 in this thread. I’m not saying I started it but I brought it up as a possibility to get Mayo up here without getting rid of Urias.
I’m sure someone else that follows the team could’ve drawn the same scenario up.
They are wasting way because they are major league ready players who are not on a major league team. They are wasting away because we can’t use them. We don’t have a place for them, but instead of trading them, we are letting them languish.
It is silly not to find a trade partner for them. If the value is low, well, the value is low, and you get what you can.
I was talking about neither Holliday nor Mayo, and I’m sorry I wasn’t clear enough. but you mentioned Stowers and Norby and you mentioned it exactly the problem that exists they’re not here because we don’t have room for them.
I am one of the very few voices who wants mayo to remain where he is unless he develops worthwhile defense, although I would be happy to trade him.
I think we’ve talked about this, but I would love to replace James McCann with Jonah Heim. Jonah Hime is a gold glove winner and even though he’s having a really bad offensive year compared to last year, he’s worlds better than McCann and would make it much easier to rest Adley more often. He has already been mentioned as a non-tender candidate because he’s apparently expecting a significant raise despite his mediocre season. Lowe might be as well, but it’s probably doubtful that they would move him now.
The Rangers, as current champs, are going to take a huge PR hit if they trade anybody but their departing free agents.
Half of their top 20 prospects are pitchers, but most have only 40-45 future values.
All of their outfielders are scuffling right now, but they are all really good so I doubt they would make any outfield trades, and just hope for some improvement from their guys.
I would love to get Robertson and Yates, and I wouldn’t mind Scherzer either. But we don’t have anybody they really need.
